Does creating and running a maximally productive permaculture food forest with grain-free pastured chickens scratching through it, and no-till gardening complete with a summer greenhouse that doubles as a winter chicken run, fire you up? What about optimizing over 400 acres for wildlife habitat (elk, deer, bears, wolves and turkeys)? In the heart of BC’s Rocky Mountains lies a 481 acre, 10 year old logging slash that you will transform into a shining beacon of regenerative agriculture.

AlgaeCal Acres is owned by AlgaeCal Inc, a company that reverses bone loss safely and naturally in a world of invasive chemical interventions. Combining scientific research with nature’s gifts, AlgaeCal is the only dietary supplement that is able to increase bone density in older adults. And you can expect the same “science plus nature” philosophy to guide their ranch operation.

Research, split-testing, learning, and refinement of methods will produce a huge variety of the most nutrient-dense foods nature offers. 2024 will bring two concurrent projects for you: # The open cut block will soon be choked out with thick poplars, so we will strategically clear feeding areas to plant and water with these animals’ favorite foods, provide bedding areas, water and more. # Planting a “no-dig” vegetable garden and food forest with the biggest variety of vegetables,



fruits and berries possible in a 2 acre area, while setting up for 75 chickens (a few laying hens, and the rest meat birds) to rotationally graze in a mostly symbiotic relationship with the plants. Harvesting produce, storing vegetables in a root cellar, canning, freezing, and freeze drying are all part of the fun. If we need consultation on any aspect of the regenerative farming process, Takota Coen has provided the initial plan and is available for guidance.

In 2025 AlgaeCal will add a winter greenhouse. In the future they may also add more species of animals to the regenerative agriculture puzzle.
